<h2>A web-based LDAP user management system<a class="headerlink" href="#a-web-based-ldap-user-management-system" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Aguilas is a centralized registration system that allows users to create and manage their accounts on an LDAP authentication platform and (in some cases) using MYSQL databases to store temporary records. It&#8217;s mostly written in PHP, and depends heavily on the use of LDAP and MYSQL servers. It has the following features:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Creates user accounts based on determined LDAP attributes.</li>
<li>Resends confirmation email in case it gets lost on spam folders.</li>
<li>Changes user password, if the user knows it.</li>
<li>Resets user password, using email as confirmation.</li>
<li>Reminds username.</li>
<li>Deletes user accounts.</li>
<li>Edits user profile (ajax enabled).</li>
<li>Lists all registered users.</li>
<li>Searches for a term in the user database.</li>
</ul>
<p>The following topics will certainly help you to know more about Aguilas:</p>
